This news is both good and bad.

Good because, well we can use decent netbooks as monitors

Bad because I just spent $600 on a brand new Manhattan LCD monitor, with battery charger and battery plate.
 
A stoopid question that I probably missed in the other thread: Is the LCD on the camera disabled when you're using EOS to monitor?

I'll answer both those questions in the other thread just to help keep info in one place
 
Dude awesome. Thanks for confirming. I forgot all about this but looks like my MSI wind has a new use.

Maybe I should get one'a those swivel screen netbooks. Hmmmm!
 
That could be a hardware issue: Cable or Laptop. Remember, those cables that they hand out are mass produced. Although it's still just digital information and not analog, cable quality at it's lowest will yield different results from cable quality at its highest.

Case in point: the newest crop of G-Tech G-Raid Hard Drives are shipped with very poorly made FW800 cables. Found that out the hard way. =T
